I have graphtec FC9000. Started cutting laminated reflective vinyl 15mil including backer. It offsets 1/8" the outer cut outwards on second last cut.

Length of cutting decal is 40-42"

Outer pinch rolers, strong, inner two on medium force

cutting speed 20

if i change material to anything less than 12 mil, all good.

using 60 degree blade

No offset changed, evrything same, just material is thick

Any help is really appreciated,

regds..garry

If it is a printed piece, be sure to put masking tape around the cropmarks so the eye can read it correctly - not unusual to have reflective or other shiny vinyl cause a miscut due to light causing the unit to see the cropmark off. I would also increase the pressure on the middle two pinch rollers - weight can cause slight slippage which is more noticeable near the end.
